Abstract:INFERENCE OF BIOGEPGRAPHICAL ANCESTRY UNDER
RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS
Tanjin Taher TomaWe study the problem of predicting human biogeographical ancestry using genomic data. While continental level ancestry prediction is relatively simple using genomic information, distinguishing between individuals from closely associated sub-populations (e.g., from the same continent) is still a difficult challenge. In particular, we focus on the case where the analysis is constrained to using single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs… Show more
